Staff Cecil Lee Posted December 3, 2009 Staff Share Posted December 3, 2009 Till today, no one is able to replicate such a refined Emperor's gold crown. Look at the fine quality of the crown! And the most outstanding feature is the "wire mesh" - no current soldering method can ever duplicate such a superb workmanship. A crown made in heaven for the son of heaven (emperor)!

Staff Cecil Lee Posted December 3, 2009 Staff Share Posted December 3, 2009 This Ceremonial Crown: Is a ritual crown worn by Ming emperors at grand ceremonies to offer sacrifices to the heaven and earth; at the ancient temple, to the god of the land and the god of grain and to the god of arming. It is also worn during the Chinese Lunar New Year's Day. Worn also on holy festivals and the conferring of noble titles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
